It’s already Wednesday?? Does anyone else feel like this week is just flying by?! Here it is the week is almost half over, I still have lots of stuff on my “To Do” list. This is perhaps because my list this week is filled with things I really don’t like to do and I just cannot procrastinate about them any longer.
Yes, I am an expert at procrastination!
However, today is Yarn Along and I should be sharing what I am knitting and reading today, but I have been carding rolags to spin for a sweater. My basket was full of rolags and I started spinning yesterday, and have two equal bobbins that are ready for plying.
I also pulled out the November Sheepspot Fiber Club Coopworth roving and spun half of it up last night. I will ply it today and get the second half of the fiber spun up.
Beth shared a great post yesterday and her Instagram feed has been nagging me lately. I have a couple of fleeces that I need to get washed and she may have supplied me with the motivation to get it done! She certainly makes it look easy.
My reading has been in fits and spurts. I read nothing all weekend and have two books that I need to get finished so I can return them to the library. I am about halfway through both of them and it is really inexcusable that I have not finished them! I am a reading slacker!! But, we have more rain in the forecast so the outdoor gardening work is in a holding pattern so I think I will find time to get them finished this week.
The leaves of Pincha are growing slowly and I have a sock in the wings as well.
As you can see, I have plenty to keep me busy, but my list calls! What is nagging you on your list this week?
Spinning yarn for a sweater must feel so special! How much time does it take approximately?
I have a pound of cormo that I need to wash, card and spin. That’s my summer spinning project. I guess I can also spin the other 3 fleeces I have sitting in the closet too. I love that shawl. I am enjoying watching the feathers grow.
From one expert procrastinator to another — please don’t procrastinate on knitting your Pincha! I love that yarn and the scarf/shawl you’re producing with it. Surely, cleaning out the freezer can wait!
Beautiful photos today! You don’t sound like a slacker in any regards, reading or spinning or knitting or otherwise.
I love that shawl and fell in love with it when I saw Karen of Pumpkin Sunrise make one. It’s going to be beautiful! Gorgeous spinning!
If this is your idea of procrastination, sit down for a bit and let me really tell you how it is!
Love the yarn for that shawl…
Cheers~
Your pin ha shawl is delightful!!! Yes the weeks are flying by for me as well 🙂
